śrācārya upanetā | tasmin saṃsthite | trirātraṃ śiṣyasya | tasyācāryasya putre patnyāṃ ca saṃsthitāyāmahorātram |
Medhātithi’s commentary (manubhāṣya):
‘Teacher’, ‘Ācārya’, here stands for the Initiator:—on his death—the impurity of the pupil lasts for three days.
On the death of the Teacher’s son or wife,—it lasts for one day and night.—(79).
